Kevin has a blend of lunacy that includes physical humor, impersonations and stylized caricatures of nightclub singers. Kevin has quickly become one of the most popular stand-up comedians among audiences across the country, as well as among his peers.
Kevin has made more than a dozen appearances on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno." Other television credits include "The Late Show with David Letterman," NBC's "Sunday Night," "Good Morning America," "Live with Regis and Kathie Lee," "The Arsenio Hall Show," MTV's "Half-Hour Comedy Hour" "Conan O'Brien," "30 Rock," "Saturday Night Live," and NBC's "Friday Night Videos."
In 1985 he won an Emmy Award for his performance on the PBS series, "Comedy Night" and made his film debut in Penny Marshall's "Big."
Kevin Meaney is a versatile comedic actor who has proven he can work in any medium and continues to do so impressively. He now has various television and film projects in the works. His inspired lunacy continues to bring him an increasing number of fans and accolades.In a world of few absolutes, this is one: Kevin Meaney was born to entertain. From his earliest days as a singing altar boy at Mass, he's gone on to achieve mass appeal for his singular brand of comedy that includes acting out stories, musical flights of fancy and telling tales on the family.
Kevin Meaney has been one of the country's most popular standup comedians for more than 25 years. Tom Shale's of the Washington Post said, "Picture the precocious love child of Jonathan Winters and Ethel Merman and you have some idea of Kevin Meaney's act."Known for drawing upon his family relationships for much of his material, Kevin has made such lines as "That's not Right" and "We're Big Pants People" and "We're going to lose the house" (delivered in the tremulous voice of his mother) catch phrases for hilarity. An evening with Kevin is a trip to the funhouse and one laugh escalates into a bigger one and good-hearted humor prevails.
Kevin is also a successful writer and producer. He wrote and produced and starred in a one-man autobiographical play titled Wedding Vows in Vegas which premiered at the prestigious U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, Colorado before going on to a successful summer run in Boston at the Hasty Pudding Theatre. Steve Martin called it, "The most innovative, heart-rending and funny show I've seen in a long, long time."
In 2002, Kevin moved home to NY from Los Angeles and began working on Broadway in the hit musical, Hairspray. Hairspray has been a life changing experience for Kevin and during an interview on XM Radio's Stand Up Sit Down on May 28, 2008, Kevin told the host that he was gay. It's been a big transition but he's seemed to find humor in how this all happened. So, Big Pants People of the world unite... your leader is here, his name is Kevin Meaney and he's on a mission of mirth.
